Would have liked to see more character depth and a more fleshed out magic system. Tbh I could write an essay on why the first two books of this series are the weakest. Also fuck TERFS.

I wish JKR weren't such a turd because this is just as magical and whimsical and warm as ever. she's really sullied her own legacy. that said I did knock the rating down a bit for the fatphobia, which just gets more egregious each time I reread this series.

Animal death of a mythical creature. And listen, eating a vomit-flavored Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Bean was one of the most disgusting things that's ever happened to me so I'm counting it as a content warning!!!

4 out of 5 ☆’s.

I wanted to get into the fall spirit so I decided to pick this series up and I have no regrets! :) 

I watched these movies when I was a child - so getting to revisit this series and read about the happenings that I had forgotten about (or the things that didn’t make it onto the screen) has been interesting!

I’m excited to continue!
